Gaxiola is from Fairfield and has appeared on Comedy Central with Gabriel Iglesias, on Martin Lawrence's First Amendment Standup, with Jamie Foxx's Lalapalooza and with Paul Rodriguez's Latin Kings of Comedy tour.

Silva said they usually line up a comedian for the annual event by going online to YouTube.

"We check a variety of comedians, and if somebody has clean comedy, are available and at the right price, then that's how we choose them," she said.

After getting a recommendation, staff watched Gaxiola on YouTube and found out he was available. He does a variety of comedy in his routine, "things that happen in your everyday life," Silva said.

Besides the comedy, the event will include music by The Crawlers.

As in the past, there will be a silent auction and raffle. Sixty-five items will be auctioned. Silva said one of the exciting items this year will be an hour-long ride for up to four people on a locomotive train starting out from the Western Pacific Railroad Museum in Portola.

There will also be seven items to win in the raffle.

Comedy Night starts at 6 p.m. and will end around 9:30.

Tickets are $25 per person in advance and $30 per person at the door if available.

Food, beer and wine tasting and dessert are included in the price of the tickets.

For tickets, call the YMCA at 533-9622 or stop at its location on the corner of Oak and Robinson streets in Oroville.

Silva said about 200 people attend Comedy Night each year.

"It's got a strong following," she said. "People always have a good time."
